Is it possible to use this adapter and my old charger to charge "bricked" Li-Ion batteries once they have been locked by Li-Ion charger?

NO. The NiMH & NiCD batteries charge differently then the Li-Ion batteries.
26323
I'll add to the other responses. NO! Li-Ion batteries have a high explosion danger when you do that kind of thing.
26324
NO! On the underside of the Liondapter there is a caution "DO NOT USE IN CHARGER"

I'm sure it would work, but I found my original charger before it came. I put it in a safe place, which I can't seem to find.

If your power supply (adapter) is bad, read my review of this charger. Mine "died" but I resurrected it. It was just a cold solder joint. It was an easy fix, but you should read my review as it could save you some headaches and maybe a broken case.

NO! I had to buy this replacement because I took my original charger to the UK and plugged it in and it stopped working after that. :( Not proper voltage, it'll burn out.

Yes, you can. I've tested the charger while connected to a Watt's Up power analyzer, and once the batteries reach a near-full charge, the amperage the charger pulls in begins to lower. Once the batteries are fully charged, the power analyzer shows 0A of current flowing between the wall adapter and the charging base, meaning the batteries are no longer drawing a charge and thereof are not overcharging. You'll be fine leaving them plugged in, though I wouldn't keep them plugged in for days on end just because you don't need them to trickle charge and lithium batteries have a very slow self-discharge when being stored between uses.

Do not believe that charger will do well for a lithium Ion Battery. I believe those chargers are designed for Ni-metal and Ni-cadium batteries only. May damage a Lithium Ion. plus I do not think the battery will fit in the charger slot.

Tyler, I tried to use this charger on a Helio battery. It would not charge it. I sent it back and got a refund. I'd be cautious about using this item!!!!!

I'm not familiar with this part #. This charger works great for me. It actually works better than the old charger. If you left the battery in the old charger overnight, it would be very warm the next morning. With the new charger , it will be cool, both the battery and charger--this is good for the battery & power bill.

I'm afraid I can't help you as this was purchased for a friend who's battery died. The charger was used over night then unplugged.

Without knowing the state of your battery it would be hard to say. Try the recondition button to see if you can get the battery to work, press the large button until recond light is lit. It takes a while to recondition the battery. Modern battery chargers will not charge bad batteries. If you started with a dead battery, then recondition may help. If the battery was okay then you have a bad unit. I would try it on a good battery before sending it back

I don't think so. It's probably that your battery is dead and you can't charge it. if you look at the pack and see the green light, the adapter's OK. Did you buy a battery too?

Unfortunately, the adaptor will not power the unit. It will only charge the battery.

I would only use this charger for the size of lithium ion rechargeable batteries that it was intended to be used with. Better to be safe than sorry. Could possibly damage batteries or charger.

I have used mine a lot and just recharge it the charger. You can buy 3.6 v Lithium-ion batteries so if your batteries are not recharging I would open it to see which battery you need.

Probably not, if it is a 3 pin connector the charger you are supposed to use probably is monitoring the temperature of the batteries while charging. If you are good with electronics you can probably get this to work by wiring in a connector, but it may decrease the life of the batteries and not charge them correctly.

Refer to your current charger. This unit will work if the your current units provides 19.5V and equal to or less than 4.62A.

Not sure. You might have to see if the manufacturer can do something for you. Mention the fact that you bought a replacement charger and it not working.
